🍸 💸 Out now: SUCCESSOLOGY by Lydie Salvayre, translated by Gila Walker

From one of France’s leading authors, SUCCESSOLOGY is a satirical disquisition on the great goal of modern life, complete with a step-by-step manual for achieving it.

Pinning down and parodying some of the most powerful people in media, business and government, as well as the particular and duplicitous players of the literary world, SUCCESSOLOGY sees with hair-raising precision who we are and what we want to be.

In propulsive prose as poised as it is playful, this unusual book delves deep into the conceits of our era and the interpersonal manoeuvres that shape our lives. Prepare to snort, cringe, weep and ponder the weight of your own ego in the harsh light of this virtuosic vivisection of success.

‘The writing in Subash Jaireth’s new book Lamentations is sinuous and meandering. It flows and it diverts, it walks and pauses, braids and circulates.’

A review of the volume of prose poetry Lamentations in The Saturday Paper today! Gregory Day also notes the design distinct to @lifebeforemanbooks:

‘Amid the current slew of “gotcha” book covers, this is an artefact that speaks with a refreshingly complete commitment to the sensibility of its content.’
